An essay towards a theory of apparitions

Ferriar, John, 1761-1815., Harry Houdini Collection (Library of Congress) · 1813 · London : Cadell and Davies, 1813 · 1 picture

An 1813 London treatise on apparitions by physician John Ferriar, published by Cadell and Davies and later held in the Library of Congress Harry Houdini Collection. The only picture here is the Library of Congress seal, an eagle above a ring reading 'Library of Congress' with '1800' and a star, which is a library stamp rather than book art and offers little for a designer beyond its emblem style.
